Lucky you Whenever I went overseas I always hoped Depression after Depression crossed over the south Island and when I arrived back a big high would settle over(this worked in Australia anyway) as Australia had dry conditions with a westerly type flow.
Often what happened is a big high would sit east of the country and on my arrival a low would cross the country from Cape Reianga to the chathams and have that "wonderful Sou' Wester"

Well another day of low cloud and freezing temps (currently 2 degees in Alexandra with a cold north west wind)
Here's hoping for some sunshine this afternoon as the northwest picks up and blows the cold air out of the basins.
But who cares, cause i will be in 20 plus degrees tomorrow.
While winter takes a grip on the south...

That sounds strange. I presume the northwest wind is very light - anything more should blow away low cloud and deliver higher daytime temperatures in places east of the main ranges (like Alexandra).
Another sunny day here in Chch, after a good morning frost.

I hope you go overseas more often then, Michael, I get sick and annoyed when ridge after ridge moves over the South Island and the North Island gets the lion's share of the 'good' weather !! Aaron would agree too!

Exciting weather across the ditch at the moment,lots of snow in the alpine areas,with snow forecast to 500 metres in Victoria tonight.
Looks like some record cold temperatures for southern Queensland as well.
More of the same here,heavy frosts,our driveway was white at 7.00pm this evening.Looking forward to the warmer West Coast tommorrow.
Cheers.
